Ilham Aliyev: "Azerbaijan has returned Ramil Safarov-its officer to
homeland, given him freedom and restored the justice."
Baku-APA. Armenian fascism has to be estimated properly on a world
scale, in order to be insured from such tragedies in future.
Unfortunately, this injustice continues up to now. I remember, I
was condemned baselessly and so many foreign dishonest politicians
expressed accusations against me, because the Azerbaijani officer-
Ramil Safarov returned homeland and I gave him freedom. Even European
Parliament adopted resolution on this issue and condemned my actions.
But even today I can say firmly that Azerbaijan has returned its
officer to homeland, given him freedom and established justice. But,
look at the world press, international organizations, how many
groundless accusations they have made against Azerbaijan"
I am completely sure that Azerbaijan will restore its territorial
integrity. All the factors- comparison of powers, international and
economic-military factors indicate it. Just it takes time and we want
to achieve it soon. Azerbaijan's state flag should be waved in Shusha,
Khankendi and Azerbaijanis should live in their historical lands in
future. Our historical lands are Irevan khanate, Goyce and Zangazur
regions. There will be times; we will live in these lands. I believe
it, I am sure. Everyone should put their efforts in order to achieve
it. Everyone should bring this sacred day nearer via their activities",
said President Ilham Aliyev at the opening of the Genocide Memorial
Complex.
President of Azerbaijan Ilham Aliyev and First Lady Mehriban Aliyeva,
on September 18 attended the opening of the Genocide Memorial Complex
built in the north-eastern town of Guba to honor victims of massacres
committed in the area by Armenian and Bolshevik forces in 1918.
The President was informed about construction work at the complex.
Guba mass burial site caused by the genocide committed by Armenians
against Azerbaijanis was discovered on April 1, 2007. The employees
of Archeology and Ethnography Institute of Azerbaijan National Academy
of Sciences found out the bones of more than 400 people. More than 50
of the remains belonged to children, 100 to women, the rest to the old
men. Along with Azerbaijanis, Lezgins, Jews, Tats and representatives
of other ethnic groups killed by Armenians were buried there.
Tens of thousands of Muslims as well as local Jews were killed
by joint Armenian and Bolshevik forces in Baku and the regions,
including Guba, Shamakhi, Goychay, Karabakh and Lankaran regions
between March and September 1918. Nearly 167 villages were destroyed
in Guba region alone.
The memorial complex was built near a mass grave of some of the
victims discovered in the town of Guba. The mass grave, unearthed
during construction of a stadium in 2007, contains remains of hundreds
of victims.
President Ilham Aliyev and First Lady Mehriban Aliyeva planted trees
outside the memorial.
The Head of State, addressing the public, spoke about acts of genocide
committed against Azerbaijani people in the 20th century, historical
facts related to this tragic massacre and the successful development
of today's Azerbaijan.
